&nbsp;Tyke has a story about pretzels, hot chicks, starting pitchers, cloning dad, beer, pony rides, etc. in St. Louis. &nbsp; I&#8217;ve got a story about Denver, Coors Field, I wish I was single like Tyke was at the time, bachelorette party, decorations, Tyke squats to pee, etc. &nbsp;Guess what? &nbsp;Large time had by all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Shout out to the &#8217;91 world series&#8211;Braves\/Twins. &nbsp;Jack Morris, Kirby Puckett, Smoltz, etc. &nbsp;Still the best world series ever. &nbsp;And here&#8217;s a toast to my old friend Nick Pool.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the series are over and the Red Sox win. &nbsp;Why? &nbsp;Probably because their manager is an OKIE STATE guy. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I&#8217;ll tell you some things that I miss&#8230;.here&#8217;s a shout out to the good old days of quail hunting and OSU baseball in the college world series every year.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of shout outs. &nbsp;Here&#8217;s to Rumour Has It. &nbsp;He has come home to Fargo this week and he has been nailing some high quality tail. &nbsp;It&#8217;s time to find out if he is good or real good. &nbsp;He looks pretty confident in his abilities. &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog&#8230;.hunh. &nbsp;This deal is borderline retarded. &nbsp;It is amazing at the number of people that actually read it and where they are from. &nbsp;It is scary and it is humbling. &nbsp;I get a laugh anytime I get a text, call or email regarding this blog. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;To [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/713"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=713"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/713\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kellnlivestock.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
